j “He was right-me ALIWiAYS lknuws." Slle said, aloud.

‘ Site tilted the picture until she could sec the buck of it. Heavy yol- lowed paper was pasted on the frame, covering the rear 0d the can- vas. She inspected the frame itself with dissatisfaction. Ripping oilf the paper, she bent the little nails that held the canvas In Ila frame, and pulled the picture from the old gilt molding. Site held It up level with her eyes.

Then site gave a. sharp exclama- tion. She was looking at a lino of sluiiil lettering, In the lower right- htiutl corner of the painting. The letters were in red pigment.

"Ii. Morton. January, 1901," they read.

Site looked again, to make sure. ’i‘licu, with n choked ejaculation, she ran to her closet, hurriedly don- ned her coal. and hut, nud with the picture under her IIIIII. run down tho stairs, Into the hall, and with- out walling for the elevator hur- ried by the stairway to the street, five floors below. Dancing with Im- patience, she waited on the curb until a taxicab appeared. Into this she climbed with her picture, and ordered the driver to g0 as rap- idly as possible to Morton's office.

When the taxi pulled up at the building alto leaned out threw a iflvo-doilar bill to the driver, and without waiting for her change, ran Inside. Upstairs, she brushed aside a clerk who was standing at Morton's door. and rushed Into his private office.

He looked up with a. smile. Then, noting what she held under her Mm. he tilted back In his chair, and

_ his eyes half closed.

Shaking with excitement, the girl stood the pltllure on edge upon his table.

iMortou nodded. "You have been investigating already," he said. quietly. "So you liked my picture?"

"Did you paint it?" she cried.

IMorton reached over, took the painting. and TBEBHIBL] It thought- fully. His voice was n little heavy as he answered, "A quarter of a century ago!"

IIe laid the picture down, and turned to stare out the window. Audrey was on her knees beside him. her hands clasping his arm.

"Oh. daddy, I never knew you painted! Where did you paint It? Wlll’ didn't you ever tell me you “"9” I! Dainter? W'Iiy did you stop painting?"

He patted her ltentl, absentiy. After u long patise,,he said: “I nev- er Intended t0 tell you. But It was nu odd little trick of fate, wasn't It. that you should like my paint- ius there in the art store‘! I hadn't seen it for nineteen years. '

Audrey put bar hand on his cheek, and turned his face toward

hsr. "But deal-est!" she exclaimed.

"if you saw that picture the last time nineteen years ago, that must have been about the time you adop- ted me! Did I see it when I was n baby?"

Ho arose lluittiiy, and went to the

window. Ills face was close to the glass, so she could not see his expression. Site saw his body give a Iittle- convulsive shake. When at last he turned around, bis face WILs composed.

"Yes, sweetheart. you saw that when you were a barby-nhough 1| doubt if you knew what is was—" "But why didn't you tell me all about It-why didn't you tell me you were an artist?"

I-Ie shook his head, and going to her, where she still sat upon her knees. he placed his hands on her shoulders.

“Chlili," he said, gently, "It was for the some reason that I have not told you many other thlngs-4wh0 your mother and father were; what your name was before I adopted

you; wiio I was and where I came

om. I have always wanted to

Aildrsy sunk further to the floor,

with her head bowed.

"Aren't you ever going to tell me

who I am?" she asked.

Morton considered. "Some day, maybe-though you will be happier, and so will I, if I never DO tell, But not now, dear."

She looked up tit hint. His face

was sad, and drawn. There was a

weary look in his eyes, that she

tiever hail seen before. Leaping to her feel. with quick comprehension.

she clasped her hands as o. child

does.

"ll won't torment you ully more, tiaddy~<but I love, your picture!

The lines about his eyes relaxed, and the lids opened wide as be look- ed at her. "You what?"

"I slapped him, and I want you

to discharge him right away," site

went on.

"Sit down," lie directed. "Let's hear about this." ‘She took one of tile big chairs. There wu-g rising indignation in lier voice as she told

"Hard? Morton asked her, stnll- Ing.

"Asharti as I could." she sflld, n little proudly. "He staggered! You

are going to discharge him right

"Not at all," Morton told her. Picking up the cattvns that lay be- ‘IPPB him. he looked over It, idly.

"And you didn't bit him. or any- thing?" Audrey's voice w“ inn-ed. ulous.

"Ha might have been right," mid M0110“. ‘ialthongh I'm inclined to think Ito's wrong. However, he's a Very good man. It appears he has the 000F888 to any what. he thinks."
